Talk about deceptive: pot linked to earlier onset of mental illness according to questionable research

I would like to point out the following:

1.)The vast majority of young people who use marijuana don't develop psychosis. And so far, no one's been able to prove that smoking marijuana actually causes psychotic disorders like schizophrenia.

2.) A number of studies had already suggested that people develop schizophrenia at a younger age if they've been using pot — even if they weren't heavy users — but not all researchers agreed.

3.) Anyone with common sense knows that ANY DRUGS taken by 12-15 year-olds are a bad thing. You could say the same for Coke – 12-15 year-olds who use it will have problems, and so on and on…

4.) The researchers did not look at whether family history of psychosis played a role in determining who was most vulnerable to marijuana's apparent early-triggering effect.

Serious psychiatric diseases starting in kids as young as 12 who smoke marijuana

“Smoking marijuana has been linked with an increased risk of mental illness, and now researchers say that when pot smokers do become mentally ill, the disease starts earlier than it would if they didn't smoke pot.

This means that serious psychiatric diseases that might not have shown up until kids were in their teens or twenties — or might never had developed at all — are starting in children as young as 12 who smoke marijuana.” STORY HERE
